Business is a resource game, and blockchain offers a means to win it, enabling interoperability with privacy-preserving computation.
In the 19th century, the barons of American industries rose to prominence by leveraging their hold on tangible resources like oil and steel.

But now, like then, the benefits of accumulating such resources come paired with a significant business risk: spillage.Like oil spills, data leaks — regardless of whether they occur accidentally or as a result of hacker interference — can cause companies and consumers significant financial, legal and political harm.

In April, the phone numbers, full names, email addresses and locations of 533 million users were shared to a hacking forum, prompting an outcry from consumers and governments alike.Related: Cr
